In my own experience as an active trader, I approach brokers like Instreet with caution, especially given the financial risks inherent in trading. However, I do recognize three reasonable benefits when considering Instreet. Firstly, Instreet is regulated by the Australian Securities & Investments Commission (ASIC), which provides a foundational layer of oversight and, in my view, some degree of credibility. Regulation does not eliminate risk, but ASIC’s involvement is an important baseline for transparency and compliance in today’s environment. Secondly, Instreet’s product range sets it apart from traditional forex brokers. Rather than providing forex, commodities, or stocks, Instreet focuses on derivatives, options, indices, and ETFs. For me, this diversity could appeal to investors seeking non-traditional securities or those specializing in structured products. However, the lack of forex or basic asset classes may be limiting depending on individual trading goals. Thirdly, I value educational support and clear communication, which Instreet seems to prioritize through its Knowledge Centre and multiple contact channels. While this does not assure positive outcomes or mitigate every risk, having access to educational material is useful for both beginners and experienced traders looking to deepen their approach. I would stress, however, that despite these benefits, the absence of a demo account and the company’s “Suspicious Scope of Business” label require additional vigilance. For me, these features mean Instreet could suit more sophisticated investors who perform thorough due diligence and understand the complexities of structured products.
